I like it, but still I see 2 flaws.
Only 6 5.25"bays? Why not full 5.25" for total 24 bays. It would be really easy to move all RAID backplanes from one case to another.
No horizontal motherboard. Hmm I'm spoiled by Mountain Mods cases, but I have to concede that quality is much higher on Lian Li than on MM products (have both LL and MM). Also no MM case offer this convenient way of loading large number of HDDs inside out of the box. They persist with ridiculous mounting system by screwing HDDs to the fan. Its dumb, cumbersome, time consuming and impossible to control when running something more than typical 1-3 drives. When buying a case for 600$ it should be [almost???] perfect without need for extensive DIY. Well MM isn't even close to that when compared to LL. The biggest problem with MM is that you are totally screwed when you need to ship case and parts 15000 km across the world. Then you begin to understand what word PAIN means. And as such I had to ditch MM because at some stage cost became prohibitive. No more upgrades.
Anyway, returning to D8000 I think there is no point in complaining that it is not case for liquid cooling, it is case for massive storage farm. Simple as that. 20 HDDs, with converters it will raise to 40, and with backplanes even exceed 50. For 330 Euros its freaking bargain! [when compared to MM] The most important thing: S&H will cost me 25 Euros not 500$.
Leaning toward purchase but need to solve RAID backplanes issue...
